The Legend of Zelda

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Before Ganon gets to the castle, it shows several people by the fountain cleaning. There are two racks beside a doorway, one having an orange rug on it, and the other a blue one. Spryte comes out and begins dusting a different rug. Shot changes back, and now the racks with those rugs are gone. (00:19:40)

Continuity mistake: After being zapped by Ganon, Spryte tries to use her spells to clean Zelda's room. The overload throws Spryte back and she lands in a red chair. She lands n the edge of it and there is a yellow line passing under her foot. The next shot, she is suddenly a little over away from that line and closer to the center. Moments later as the bucket sprouts wings, it shows her in the center of the chair suddenly. (00:21:35)

Continuity mistake: Spryte uses her magic on the cleaning supplies in Zelda's room, unaware that Ganon zapped her and supercharged her spells. A couple mops dip into buckets of water and go down and wet the floor right by the buckets. Couple shots later when the buckets sprout wings, the floor is suddenly dry again. (00:21:55)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: As Spyte's spells go haywire and things lose control, a rag flies out of a bucket and takes shape to kick the fairy. As it comes out of the bucket, it is a pale green color. The next shot of it attacking Spryte, it is white. (00:22:05)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Zelda has her hand on a large brown rug on a rack as she hears Spryte scream. Buckets with wings fly out and down past her and the shot changes to a closer view. When this happens, the brown rug is significantly smaller than just a few shots before. (00:22:20)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Quite a bit of water goes down the tower steps and washes Link and Zelda out onto the ground. Zelda's room was about half full when Link opened the door. But as soon as Zelda stands up after they are flood out, there is no water left on the ground or the steps at all. Zelda and Link don't even look wet. (00:22:50)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: After the water washes Link and Zelda out of the tower, they are by the stairs. During this part while they talk, they keep changing distance and location from the stairs between shots, most notably the far shot when Link hands Zelda some shrunken weapons. (00:23:00)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Zelda's room was just full of water, up to her windows and everything covered. Her bed even floats in it and buckets are dumping water on top of it. When Link and Zelda get inside the room after it all floods down the stairs, nothing is wet at all. (00:23:40)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When responding to the sound of Spryte's scream, Link opens the doors to Zelda's room and is washed out by all the water. The door is a double door at this time. But when he and Zelda go back up the steps to the same door and open it, it is now a single door. (00:23:40)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: During the fight with the deranged cleaning supplies in Zelda's room, Link gets attacked by her bed sheet and gets wrapped up. Once Zelda dispatches the mops that are attacking him, the sheet changes from being wrapped around him to just being draped over him. (00:24:20)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When asking Spryte what happened, Zelda and Link are in Zelda's destroyed room. There is a knocked over table behind them with flowers and books on the floor by it. After the Triforce is discovered stolen and the scene goes back to Zelda's room where Spryte decides to help, the books by the table are gone. (00:24:35 - 00:25:10)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Earlier in the episode, Zelda is in Link's room and there is a huge pile of dirty clothes beside Link's bed. Later that same day when they rush back into his room to see if Ganon stole the Triforce, the pile is gone. Nobody was cleaning Link's room since he as faking being sick. And Link sure didn't do it since he faked being sick to get out of ANY cleaning. (00:24:40)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Just after Ganon zaps Spryte, Link is in his room practicing with his sword saying 'take that, Ganon'. He is moving past some widows and some flowers come into view between the two windows. The shot cuts to him jumping to kick a chair, and the flowers vanish. (00:25:35)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: After Ganon makes off with the Triforce and escapes to the underground, Link takes Zelda to a different secret entrance that he knows, which is in a tree trunk. As Link is reaching up to pull on a branch to open the door, Zelda is standing next to him and facing directly at the tree. But as Link begins pulling on the branch, the shot changes to a closer view and suddenly Zelda is a little further away from Link, and now facing him instead of the tree. (00:26:00)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: In the secret tunnel to Ganon's lair that Link and Zelda are in after going inside the tree, some roots attack them. One wraps around Zelda, which Link then blasts with a sword laser. She falls and there are pieces of tree root on the ground around her. But as Link is then grabbed by a root, Zelda stands up and the pieces of the root that grabbed her have vanished. (00:26:25)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: After saving Zelda from the roots, Link himself is grabbed by a tree root in the secret tunnel. Zelda breaks in with an arrow and Link falls on the ground. The pieces of the tree root are next to him. Then a trap door opens that they happen to be on at that moment and so Link, Zelda, and the tree root pieces fall through. But the next shot of them falling, the tree roots are gone. And when they fall into the holding jar, no tree roots follow. (00:27:05)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: A trap door opens up in the secret tunnel and Link and Zelda falls into a holding jar. The base of the jar appears to be a dark green color, with white spikes all around the base of the glass part. But the shot where Ganon walks up and Link idiotically tries to blast a sword laser at him, the spikes have turned to the same green as the stand. Then they go back to white again in following shots. (00:27:15)

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: As the crab creature approaches the holding jar that Link and Zelda are in, Link puts his arm in front of Zelda and says "I'll handle this". The shot from beside the crab shows Link's arm stop with his hand about level with Zelda's belt. Then there is a cut to a close up, and Link's arm is now about level with Zelda's chest. It cuts back to a distance shot and again his hand is by her belt. (00:27:45)

Quantom X

Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: While in the holding jar, Link begins beating on the glass with his sword. While the crab creature shows up, his sword is suddenly sheathed again. Then moments later, back in his hand as he strikes at the crab's claws. (00:27:45)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: Right in the beginning of the title sequence, Zelda and Link walk into a room and see the Triforce of Wisdom. Zelda even says it is the Triforce of Wisdom. It is green. But throughout the entire show in the episodes, the Triforce of Wisdom is shown as blue. (00:00:05)

Trivia: In almost every other incarnation of the Legend of Zelda, Link is left handed using his sword in that one, (except the Wii version of Twilight Princes where everything is reversed). But in this TV show, he is right handed.

The Ringer - S1-E1

Question: Once Zelda and Link confront Ganon on the road, he summons more skeletons up and they surround Link and Zelda. 7 Skeletons against Link and Zelda. So what's Link's plan of action? He takes off his belt and wraps it around himself and Zelda, strapping them together back to back to fight the 7 skeletons. This to me seems like it would just hinder their mobility. So my question is what is the really point of Link strapping himself to Zelda like that while surrounded? does it actually make sense to do that?

Quantom X

Chosen answer: It'll be to ensure that they're always facing directly away from each other, 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock, meaning between the two of them they've pretty much got 360 degree coverage. Otherwise there's a chance they might end up at say 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock, leaving themselves exposed from another direction.
